- Camera 18 - ON
- --------------
-
- I am sure many of you have read the book _1984_ by George Orwell,
- and didn't like the society he portrayed. The year 1984 came and went, and
- things weren't like that at all, but a few years later, all the workings
- for a Big Brother atmosphere are here. If you pay attention to your
- surroundings you will notice more and more factors either controlling
- your life, or watching your actions.
-
- While I was in Las Vegas, I noticed it more than anywhere else, and
- that is somewhat understandable. With all the casinos in hotels they have
- to keep an eye on who is doing what to ensure fair play. But why do they
- have cameras in all the central hallways, resteraunts, lobbies, elevators,
- entrances, etc? If you travel to nice hotels in other cities, there are
- probably only 15% of the cameras watching your actions. Each room comes
- equipped with a nice mirror for your use, but I have to wonder if there
- is a camera behind that too.
- As you go in retail stores, you will find more have installed
- security cameras and have hired someone to watch them full time. Once again
- this is to mostly deter theft, but what else can they do? They can watch
- you anywhere in the store, at any time, for any reason. Many companies
- that you call will state something to the effect of "This call may be
- monitored for quality control", and that can be applied to the use of the
- cameras you see. I am sure employers want to make sure everything is fine
- with their employees. Now, during work, you have to make sure you don't
- stop to take a quick break and collect your thoughts, as you wouldn't want
- your boss to think you are slacking off.
- Go to some of the bigger cities, and drive around. Look about twenty
- to thirty feet up and you will sometimes notice cameras on the outside of
- the building watching the street in front, the sidewalk, or parking garage.
- In some cases, they are monitoring intersections near the building.
- Most of the time these cameras are stationary, and are there to provide
- a good view of as much area as possible. They can't see a lot of detail,
- but they can monitor any activity around the building as well as what is
- going on across the street. Why? There is no need for that.
- Almost every government building is loaded with cameras, and
- sometimes microphones to listen in on what is going on. Private conversation
- is totally eliminated in this kind of environment, and that in itself is
- not condusive to happy workers. If you go to work and know you can't talk
- privately about something with someone, and know that when you are talking,
- they could easily be watching you, how would you feel? Untrusted for sure.
-
- If the thought of being monitored at any time while in public kind
- of disturbs you, think of the way we are heading. With each day it seems the
- common people are losing their privacy. Anything done by anyone to ensure
- privacy is bashed down by the system. Take Phil Zimmerman for example. He
- wants his mail and information totally private, but the goverment doesn't
- like that since they can't read his mail, or anyone else's using his
- software. Now, he is under investigation for exporting munitions because
- of his desire for privacy. Since when does encryption software fall in the
- category of munitions? Every time he comes back into the country he is
- subjected to hours of questioning regarding his trip, his activites, etc.
- Big Brother is here.
- The government is supposed to be here to guide us on the right path
- for the good of the people. Since when is being able to monitor every/any
- phone conversation good for the people(clipper)? Why is a social security
- number required to do anything these days? That is a good tracking method
- they have and can keep good tabs on where you are, and what you do. With
- that single number, anyone in power(or anyone who knows how to obtain that
- power) can get any information on you in a matter of minutes. Your credit
- records, hospital records, name/address/unlisted phone number, or anything
- else about you.
-
- At the current rate, most citizens will lose almost every aspect
- of privacy they hold valuable. Anything you do, anywhere in the country you
- go, you will not be able to have a private moment. Imagine having open house
- inspections at random, random car searches driving down the highway, or
- worse. All these are aspects of a Big Brother society. Keep telling yourself
- that it doesn't mean it will happen..
